I went down a rabbit hole on this one and came up with a functional solution, but it was such a PITA I never ended up using it. It works tho so if anyone wants to try it out, here's some snippets and a general overview.

the general overview is:

we make use of openscad's ability to read data from json files
a background service regularly writes the current time to a json file, that we read and re-read multiple times
a "time" function writes a log to the console of how long it's been since the prev time and the current time
during the rendering of the model, before and after each thing we want to time, we call the time function
as it's rendering, or after it's renered, just look at the console logs and you can see "this bit took 10ms", "that bit took 10s", "that bit took 5 mins" etc.

here's the util functions in my lib

Before I learned about Github Does Dotfiles, I wrote my own workstation, Since then, I've looked and I like the way skwp/dotfiles's dotfiles are layed out, but like the theming from xero/dotfiles's. I've got a fork in deanrather/dotfiles.

I haven't yet finished testing / implementing / merging the things together yet. This note is so I can pick up where I left off.

Windows are "Tiled" by default, and you organise the tiles instead of click-dragging windows around.
Virtual Desktops are called Tags, there's 9 of them, and they're per-Screen.

Moving Between Windows

Win+J/K   		| Prev / Next Window (like Alt+tab)
Win+Ctrl+J/K	| Prev / Next Screen
Win+1-9 | Change to Desktop
